Welcome to Science Class 101. I’m your teacher for the next few minutes, to break down what it is about D3O’s non-Newtonian material that makes its upcoming range of helmet protection ...
Mode-coupled vibrations in a thickness-shear (TSh) mode and laterally finite film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) with one face in contact with Newtonian (linearly viscous and compressional) liquid are ...
What exactly are Dobsonian telescopes? We explain their design and why they have such widespread popularity among astronomers.
Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such ...
The researchers say that one of their main motivations was to develop a shock absorber that could be used to build flexible phone screens. Their work establishes a framework to optimize the squeezing ...
The design and use of superhydrophobic surfaces have gained special attentions due to their superior performances and advantages in many flow systems, e.g., in achieving specific goals including drag ...
“This not only answers long-standing basic questions about the physical origins of these materials, but opens up doors for the design of new non-Newtonian fluids with practical applications ...
Researchers at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) have investigated the fundamental physics of non-Newtonian fluids using piezoelectric nanoparticles, which ...
Non-Newtonian fluids can be used for the protection of flexible laminates. Understanding the coupling between the flow of the protecting fluid and the deformation of the protected solids is necessa ...
